Inserting robotic technology in the classroom can provide high level learning experiences. For example, students draw a large map of the silk road on the floor with crate paper. Then they program robots to drive the road while solving common silk road problems associated with prices, differing languages and possible dangers! Computer programming and kinesthetic problem solving can be used beyond the classroom to help increase students' interest in a STEM career. It is my experience that when teachers create engaging creative content with technology, it increases achievement, motivation, and overall ability to remember learning objectives after time goes by.
